Execute a timely go-around if the approach cannot be made within the tolerances specified above or for any other condition that may result in an unsafe approach or landing.
Bottom line
Every approach should be evaluated at 500 feet, and if the approach is not stabilized at that height, a go-around should be initiated. Terrain that rises faster than the seaplane can climb is a consideration for a go-around during landing.
